Based in Calgary, Alberta, St John Choir Schola is an exceptional choral and classical academic program, designed for homeschool families and grounded in the Catholic tradition. The primacy of the choral program reflects our view that beautiful music has a powerful influence on the development of children. There are no auditions; all of our students sing in one of our five choirs. Our not-for-profit program attracts more families every year, and we expect approximately 160 students for 2024-2025. Governed by a Board of Directors, SJCS employs tutors, choral directors and an Executive Director to implement our vision.
